5-Amino-1MQ reconstitution calculator.

Work out the concentration of a reconstituted 5-Amino-1MQ vial. Presets match the 50 mg format we stock, and the reference table below is calculated for those exact vials. Research use only.

How the calculation works

Concentration is the mass of peptide divided by the volume of solvent. A vial holding 5 mg reconstituted with 2 ml of bacteriostatic water gives 2.5 mg/ml, so a 100 µL aliquot contains 0.25 mg. The powder itself adds no meaningful volume at these masses, which is why the water volume alone sets the concentration.

Handling in the Vietnamese climate

Sealed lyophilized vials are stable at room temperature in transit, which is why the material ships dry rather than cold. Once reconstituted, the solution is kept refrigerated and shielded from light. Bacteriostatic water is the usual solvent because the benzyl alcohol in it lets a vial be entered more than once.

What is 5-Amino-1MQ?

Not a peptide. A small molecule that blocks a single enzyme.

5-Amino-1MQ is not a peptide despite its place in this catalog. It is a small molecule, and its job is narrow: it inhibits one enzyme called NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase).

The reason that enzyme is interesting connects directly to NAD+. NNMT consumes nicotinamide. The raw material cells use to build NAD+. And methylates it into a form that gets excreted. Block NNMT, and more nicotinamide stays available for NAD+ production. So rather than supplying NAD+ from outside, this approach tries to stop the cell from throwing away the ingredients. It is early-stage research with no human trial record.

Common questions

What is 5-Amino-1MQ?

A small molecule. Not a peptide. That inhibits the enzyme NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase). It is early-stage research material with no human trial record. Listed here as a non-clinical research material.

How is 5-Amino-1MQ related to NAD+?

NNMT consumes nicotinamide, the raw material cells use to build NAD+, converting it into a form that is excreted. Inhibiting NNMT is an attempt to keep that raw material available, rather than supplying NAD+ from outside.

How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a 5-Amino-1MQ vial?

There is no single correct volume. The water volume sets the concentration: more water gives a weaker solution and a larger aliquot for the same mass. Common choices are 1 to 5 ml. Enter your vial size above to see what each volume produces for 50 mg.

What concentration does a 5-Amino-1MQ vial give?

It depends entirely on the solvent volume. The reference table above lists every combination of the 50 mg vial format and 1, 2, 3 and 5 ml of bacteriostatic water.

Does the powder change the final volume?

Not measurably at these masses. A few milligrams of lyophilized peptide occupies a negligible volume, so the bacteriostatic water you add is effectively the final volume.

Can I use normal water or saline instead?

Bacteriostatic water is the standard solvent for multi-entry vials because it contains a preservative. Sterile water and saline have no preservative, so they are single-entry solvents.
